Without Painkillers, Injections, or Surgery

Are you worried about low back pain that doesn't go away no matter what you do?
Are you frustrated that pain medication or stretching hasn't helped your low back pain?
Are you having trouble sleeping at night because of your back pain?
Are you having to modify exercises or activities in your daily life?
Are you still searching for a long-term solution to your back pain?
Many people suffer with low back pain because they're told...
🗣️ "Just "rest it" and it will get better"
🗣️ "It's "normal" with age"
🗣️ "If you just take some pain meds it will go away"
🗣️ "You need to limit your exercise routine or stop lifting weights"
✨Rest is not the long-term answer. Rest may provide temporary relief for an acute back injury, but the body needs to stay moving in order to allow things to heal!
✨Back pain should not be considered a "normal" or "standard" part of aging!
✨Pain meds will not fix the root of the problem. They can cause further issues or damage in the body with prolonged use.
✨You shouldn't have to change the way you work out to fit around your back pain.
It can be confusing to decide what you should do if you are experiencing low back pain. You've likely heard a lot of options such as...
🙄 A family member tells you to try a stretch that works for them
🙄 A friend tells you about a good massage therapist
🙄 The "experts" from social media tell you what exercises to do
🙄 A colleague tells you to try a yoga studio
🙄 All while your primary care doctor tells you to rest or prescribes medication
It is essential to choose the right provider for your health journey. If you don't, you could end up getting pressured to have unnecessary injections, take pain medications for life, or have a dangerous surgery.
Having the least-invasive, most holistic treatment is crucial to fixing the root cause of this pain and making sure it doesn't come back in the future.
In order to do that, you need someone who will not only treat the pain or symptoms, but take the time to understand WHY this happened to you and WHERE it is coming from. That is when you'll be able to get rid of this problem FOR GOOD.
We know that dealing with the healthcare system can be frustrating. You wait for what feels like forever—weeks or even months—just to see a doctor, only to have a quick conversation before they rush off to the next person. Unfortunately, the same goes for many physical therapy clinics. They tend to be fast-paced and lack personal attention, so your therapist barely has time to focus on the areas where you’re experiencing pain.
We first start by listening to your story. After working with many people who experience low back pain, we’ve learned that everyone is different. Each person has their own body, history, and type of pain. That’s why our first step is to listen to you share your story. This helps us gain a deeper understanding of what’s happening in your body and how the pain is affecting your life. Sometimes, it is those small details you gather from someone's story that unlocks the "why" behind someone's pain.
To address the root cause of your pain, the first priority is to help you find relief. We understand that pain can be overwhelming, so our approach begins by focusing on reducing your discomfort right away. This involves taking a detailed look at your movement patterns and identifying any issues that might be contributing to your pain. Over the course of a few visits, we use a combination of targeted exercises, hands-on techniques, and other treatments to alleviate your pain and make you feel better. By reducing your pain first, we create the foundation for working on the underlying causes, ensuring lasting improvements in your mobility and comfort.
Many people receive a diagnosis or medical label for what’s happening with their body. Whether it’s from a doctor, test results, or something you found online, you might have been told to rest, take painkillers, or even consider surgery as your only options.
While these approaches can offer short-term relief, they don’t address the root cause of the issue.
The truth is, no two people have the same problem or the same underlying cause to their back pain.
At Mitchell Holistic Health, our mission is to find the true source of your pain, so it doesn’t just go away temporarily, but stays gone for good. We go beyond simply addressing symptoms by offering a comprehensive assessment at each session, ensuring we create the most personalized treatment plan for you. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy use a specialized evaluation and treatment method that helps pinpoint the root cause of your pain and effectively resolve it.
We understand that you might be feeling uncertain about physical therapy or unsure of where to turn. If you've been disappointed by past experiences with healthcare providers or physical therapists, we invite you to schedule a discovery call. We'd love to hear your story and see if we're the right fit to help you moving forward.
This is where we get to work on getting you back to the activities you LOVE—pain-free!
It’s one thing to treat the pain and understand its source, but it's another to create a personalized plan that will help you get back to doing what you love. No more hearing "it's just a part of aging" or "aches and pains are normal." We’ll incorporate targeted exercises, nutrition, and lifestyle adjustments to make sure the pain doesn’t come back.
Our goal is to get you back to...
-Walking or running pain-free over any distance
-Progressing your weights on leg day at the gym
-Working out without having to modify movements due to pain or fear
-Driving or sitting comfortably, without discomfort
-Playing sports or enjoying recreational activities without pain
-Spending time with your kids or grandkids, pain-free

Our most successful clients are those who are committed to getting back to a healthy, active lifestyle—whether they’re feeling stuck or worried right now. We’re here to help you get there!
